In those moments when I have to check my grammar, or re-discover my more refined vocabulary, or feel compelled to explain the pleasure I feel in serving an old fashioned cholesterol infested evil red meat pot roast, with buttered up mashed ‘tatters and corn for supper instead of the Asian, Mexican, or European, vegetarian counterparts, this is when all I can say is “Hey, I’m just a Farmer’s Daughter.”
While reflecting on the lighter side of life and pondering some deeper meanings, it is often the people in those stories that make us laugh, or cry, and help us to see that life is a journey full of adventure, laughter, pain, but most of all, friendship.
